The Bihar Land Mutation (Amendment) Act- 2021
The Bihar Land Mutation Amendment Act of 2021 regulates how land ownership records are updated in Bihar. It applies to landowners, government revenue officials, and certified civil engineers. The law requires all land mutation applications to include a verified, scaled sketch map showing the exact boundaries of the transacted property. These maps must be prepared by government approved professionals using modern digital surveying tools. This amendment specifically matters because it links physical boundary maps directly to official digital land registries. This system reduces ownership disputes, prevents fraudulent transactions, and clearly details the legal process to appeal any contested property boundaries.
